Well done to the Junior Tennis Team who reached the Leinster Boys Tennis Semi-Finals. They played brilliantly but unfortunately lost 3-2 against a strong Sandford Park side.

55 of our Transition Year students had the privilege of travelling to Barcelona last weekend.
Upon our arrival we did a walking tour of the city, which included a walk around the magnificent Sagrada Familia.
We went to see Barcelona play Real Sociedad at the Olympic Stadium.
The lads got a tour of the RCD Espanyol stadium and visited the science museum CosmoCaixa, as well as Port Aventura theme park for a day.
We got some time in the pool at the hotel and also went on a cycle tour to Cambrils.
A fantastic trip and experience for all! The lads were fantastic and a credit to themselves, the school and their families.
A huge thank you to other the teachers who organised, travelled and looked after the lads throughout; Mr.Boland, Mr.Moore, Mr.Brecknell, Ms.O'Donovan and Ms.Harnett.
I have included a few of photos from the trip.

It is also attached as a PDF below.

If a student cannot make their time, please try to arrange a swap and notify me immediately.

A huge thanks to the local businesses that sponsored raffle prizes in our staff fundraiser for the all-weather pitch. Thanks to Mr. Joyce, Mr. Whelan, Ms. Ward, Mr. Fitzgibbon and Mr. Dunne for organising the raffle and to all staff who supported the raffle by selling tickets. A phenomenal €10,500 was raised towards the cost of the all-weather pitch.
